I got a great reader question in my email today! Someone asked how to go about ordering one of our accordion books – and I thought what a great opportunity to share some info on what they are and how to order! Accordion books are a GREAT way to display and share your photos! They hold 8 photos each and come with a plain or photo cover. There are four photos on each side and it folds up like a book with a hard cover and magnet closure. You can also display it open on a shelf or table top by standing it up. We have two sizes – the regular accordion size which is 5×7 inches and these smaller mini books which are pictured below. (I like to say that the regular sized accordions are “purse-sized” and the mini ones are “pocket-sized”.
Accordion mini books are great for seniors, families, and other milestones! They also make fantastic gifts!
Here’s how to order an accordion book through your online gallery:
1. Sign into your photo gallery and locate the photos you want to include in your accordion book.
2. On each photo you want to include, click the Favorite icon (shown below)
3. Once you’ve selected a photo as a Favorite, a small star icon will appear in the top right of the photo to show that it’s on the list!
You can view your favorites list anytime, just by clicking the Favorites icon in the top center of your gallery. Use the Favorites panel to see all of your choices at once and narrow them down! Once you have your 8 photos on your favorites list, go ahead and add the Accordion book size of your choice to your online cart and check out. When we receive the order, we’ll access your favorites list and design your book from there!
Printing digital photos is HUGELY important! What if there’s a black out, what if DVDs and USBs go the way of cassette tapes and records, what if hard drives fail, what if there’s a zombie apocalypse??? You should not need electricity or an internet connection to see the faces of the ones you love when they are far away. #printyourphotos !
